The short answer

Wappalyzer is great for checking one website at a time with its browser extension, used by about 3 million people. Incumbently watches every company that uses a product, catches back-end tools a browser can't see, and alerts you when an account starts switching. You can ask it questions in Claude or ChatGPT.

  • Market-wide lists and alerts, not one site at a time
  • Back-end and hiring signals that a browser extension can't see
  • Paid plans from $149 a month, with alerts, contacts and API credits included

Wappalyzer might fit if

Wappalyzer fits if you mostly want a quick browser check of a single website's front-end tools.

Questions

Incumbently vs Wappalyzer, answered.

The browser extension is free. Paid plans with lead lists and API access cost $250 to $850+ a month, and plan credits expire after 60 days (checked November 2026).

Not yet. We started with MCP, so you can ask about any company from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, plus a dashboard and an API.

It reads what a website loads in the browser, so tools behind the scenes usually don't show up. Incumbently reads infrastructure records and hiring data to find them.
